    Hi Newcolator 
    If you take Between option of slicer it always show you continue date. Its better for just month selection you can either take tile or verticle list or dropdown.

    If you dont want calendar as a slicer then take different option under visual slicer setting.

     

    I hope I answered your question!

This is not a solution and is not a suitable alternative if the intended use is selecting a month range rather than a single month. The functionality the OP is asking for is missing.

 

To do what the OP was trying to do, the slider options on the Slicer would need to allow the range it displays to be based on the available values in the field rather than always showing every calendar day between the min and max values in the range. Or at least it would need a day/week/month/quarter switch or something like that.
